The partnership brings CIChecked’s human-driven investigative screening approach directly to CenterState CEO’s network of nearly 2,000 member businesses across New York State. Central New York is in the middle of a historic economic expansion. Syracuse’s job growth has reached a 25-year high, with the region adding 6,000 to 8,000 jobs year over year - driven largely by the semiconductor industry, healthcare, education, and business services. As employers scale to meet demand, the need for thorough, compliant background screening has never been more critical. New York’s unique court system, evolving compliance landscape - including the Clean Slate Act - and the sheer volume of hiring activity require more than a database search and a prayer. This partnership was built to meet that moment. CIChecked is a New York State-licensed private investigative agency that treats every background check as a full investigation - not a data pull. The company’s proprietary [NY Checked™](https://www.cichecked.com/ny-checked) solution delivers statewide criminal screening results in two to four hours at $32.50 per search, compared to the $95.00 fee and multi-day turnaround typical of the state’s Office of Court Administration (OCA) search. CIChecked operates at a level of speed, accuracy, and client service that most screening providers simply don’t offer. *"Central New York is experiencing growth we haven't seen in a generation, and with that comes a responsibility to make sure the people driving that growth are exactly who they say they are,"* said Michelle Pyan, President of CIChecked™. *"CenterState CEO understands what it takes to build a thriving business community. We built CIChecked to be the kind of screening partner this region deserves - one that picks up the phone, digs into the details, and never cuts corners to save time. While others automate, we investigate. That's not a tagline. It's how we've operated for over two decades." *Through this partnership, CenterState CEO member businesses gain exclusive access to a complimentary screening program review with CIChecked’s team of licensed investigators. The review evaluates an organization’s current screening program for compliance gaps, cost inefficiencies, and turnaround bottlenecks - with no commitment required. Members also benefit from dedicated account support, access to CIChecked’s full suite of investigative solutions, including NY Checked™, Eagle View™ social media screening, Vigilant™ continuous monitoring, Healthcare Comply Plus™, and integration with over 65 applicant tracking and HRIS platforms The partnership is effective immediately. CenterState CEO members interested in a complimentary screening program review can visit cichecked.com or contact us at (518) 271-7546 or info@cichecked.com. **# # # ** **About CIChecked™ **CIChecked™ (Commercial Investigations LLC) provides thorough, human-driven background investigations that go beyond database searches.
